thanks for posting. I just watched and it was cool to see, I didn't realize they were in Italy.
I didn't recognize #1, anyone know who that is playing MB? Surprised one of the other players on the roster from last year is not getting minutes. I saw Guy get a few rotations but mostly #1 and he wasn't that impressive.
Rama not seen on the floor or in warmups. Possibly IR?
UCLA looked a little rough but not an unexpected performance against a pro team in the preseason.
Clini at L is a surprise to me, watching him in club I thought his ball control and SR was good but not exceptional. Curci with the other L jersey on and Aziz was suited and taking first ball reps in hitting lines but not sure if he was used as a serving sub or not. Maybe another season of musical chairs at the L?

I forgot Thorne transferred! Thanks for reminder. he looked rough in that match... couldn't close a block or keep up with Monza's offense, hands rarely over the net and body language did not look comfortable, seemed lost on teh floor. He was really good on GCU last year so likely just a bad match for him.
I speed watched the video but I thought I saw #9 put into the match who looked a lot like Guy. I remember now that he did announce he transferred, again, thanks for reminder! Is there a #9 MB on the team this year that I saw or did I imagine that?

Rama played in their previous friendly against another team, and Aziz/McDonough alternated liberos passing/defense. |

Looking at their instagram, it looks like #9 is Trent Taliaferro |

I know the news is still fresh (hell I'm still processing), but do we think Brad Keller goes after the HC job?
I'm sure he's happy at USC, but still...
